📋 Description

• Continuously monitor Claude and ChatGPT product roadmaps, release notes, and vendor communications to anticipate platform changes before they land • Translate upcoming features into proactive configuration, policy, and enablement decisions not reactive scrambles • Maintain active relationships with Anthropic and OpenAI account teams; flag ToS updates, data processing agreement changes, and acceptable use policy shifts before they become surprises • Provide expert-level administration of AI console environments across both platforms • Manage Claude and ChatGPT organizational settings files using Git, version-controlled, reviewed, and deployed like the infrastructure they are • Own API key lifecycle management and secrets hygiene for all AI integrations • Manage SSO/SCIM provisioning for AI platforms; ensure access is tight, auditable, and clean • Develop token tracking and financial dashboards so leadership actually knows what AI costs us by team, by use case, by month • Build anomaly detection on AI spend; if something spikes, you catch it before accounting does • Produce regular usage trend reports and ROI framing for leadership that goes beyond "we use AI a lot" • Build and maintain internal MCP servers that extend AI capabilities into our workflows securely • Be the in-house subject matter expert on agentic AI builds such as architecture, risk, failure modes, and the parts that go sideways in ways no one anticipated • Write code. Python and/or TypeScript. AI-augmented is fine (encouraged, even), but you need to own what ships • Identify and mitigate prompt injection risks in internal AI-powered tools • Ensure no sensitive or regulated data (PII, PCI, PHI) flows into AI prompts. Architect the guardrails, not just the policy • Maintain awareness of AI-specific incident response options; when something goes wrong with an AI integration, you're in the room • Serve as IT Engineering's primary liaison to the AI Adoption Committee bringing operational grounding to adoption decisions • Participate actively in the AI Working Group; connect platform capabilities to how the company actually uses them • Partner closely with the Governance & Trust team, who leads AI policy and governance. Your job is to be their technical counterpart by implementing, informing, and flagging issues, not owning the policy itself

🎯 Requirements

• Outstanding interpersonal skills and team-first mentality • 5+ years in security engineering, IT engineering, or a DevOps role with meaningful security responsibility throughout • Hands-on DevOps background: Git-based config management, CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code mindset applied to platform administration • Direct, hands-on experience administering Claude (Anthropic) and/or ChatGPT (OpenAI) at an organizational level. This isn't a "I use it every day" checkbox; we mean console administration, managed settings, and enterprise controls • Working knowledge of AI risk factors: prompt injection, data leakage, agentic failure modes, and incident response options when AI systems behave unexpectedly • Comfortable writing production-quality code in Python and/or TypeScript especially for dashboards, automation, and MCP server development • Experience with GCP and Cloud native environments • Familiarity with SSO/SCIM provisioning in SaaS-heavy environments (Okta or similar) • Strong written communication; you'll be translating technical AI platform changes into clear guidance for non-technical stakeholders regularly
